Hi all,

I am trying to build a toolset for some users using the model builder but was stuck at the point where I want to enable users to set their own value for buffer distance. 

The only parameters which i managed to create for the model are the input and output. Does anyone know if I am able to let the users set their own buffer distance as a parameter? 

Thanks!
